A group of teens try to balance on a wire held between two trees. A third wire tied to the left most tree is going away from the camera and holds some more teens balancing.

A group of seven teens are clustered together facing away from the camera. One individual is seen facing the camera between the shoulders of the teens. This individual is looking at their wrist.

A group of five walks away from the camera between two large swaths of bushes and trees. A field can be seen at the end of the passageway made from the greenery.

A line of teens sit in front of a campfire.

The bottom half of a teen wearing sweatpants and a green khaki sweater is seen holding the trans flag with both their hands.

A rock is being painted purple with a blue stripe with a foam brush. The rock is held between the pointer finger and thumb of the painter.

Two leaders stand on the edge of a dock on a lake. The backs of four individuals face the camera.

Attendees hold on to on another and ropes hanging from trees.
